Puli production cost is 118 means that is not making cost,the selling price for the film.Rajini got 150+ selling cost before linga.
after 11 days no one comes with complaint,they are pre planned because of Bhagubali impact, vijay knows puli will get comparison and also get big fall.that is the reason he planned and released it over 450 theaters more than 600 screens (90% theaters) in tamil nadu for 4 days.
